Job description

This job application is restricted to applicants in the UK only.

Are you an experienced carpenter, with extra skills such as tiling and plaster? Our Somerset team is looking for the right person to join them.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be completing carpentry responsive repair works in our customers' homes in the Somerset region. We’ll also call on your previous plumbing knowledge and experience to support the team. Internally, you’ll be known as a carpenter level 2.

You’ll be working in our customer’s homes, so you’ll have a customer service focus wanting to do a great job every time.

No two days are the same. You’ll carry out a number of jobs in a day with your work shared with you via your handheld device, your PDA. Primarily you’ll work alone but you’ll be part of the wider team so there’s always someone at the end of the phone to support you.

About you

You’ll have a carpentry qualification, NVQ or equivalent. You’ll be able to identify causes and specify materials required to rectify carpentry issues. You will also have additional plumbing skills as well as being able to tile and plaster.

You’ll need to be a confident user of IT, as your work is shared via an iPad and you’ll need to control & manage your van stock electronically.

You’ll be working with a variety of teams and communicating with them regularly, so you’ll be confident in managing expectations of both internal and external customers. As you’ll be in customers' homes daily, you’ll understand the importance of delivering great customer service and will endeavor to first fix at every opportunity.

We will supply a company vehicle to get you around, so you’ll need a full, UK manual driving licence. You’ll work in the Somerset area but may be required on occasion to support our other regional teams.

You’ll have a flexible approach to work and will be willing & able to take part in our out of hours rota. You’ll also be willing and able to comply with facefit regulations.

We invest in our colleagues because we know if they have a better day at work, the service our customers receive will be better. The Aster Offer is our offer to our colleagues to ensure they have a great day at work and includes things like:

• Flexible working – whilst some roles need to be carried out in a specific place at a specific time, where possible we encourage our colleagues to work to their own schedule at a location that suits them, their team and our business’ needs.
